Grand Background Story,Complex and Fast-changing Force Relations
My CPX presentation introducing people to the concepts of Complexity theory and how it can be applied to the business world using the ancient game of Go as a learning tool.
Go is the most revered of Asian strategy board games. But simply calling Go a game is like calling the space shuttle a glider. It has been used for centuries to discuss and model political, economic and military strategy in China and Japan.
Often Go has been compared to Chess to highlight the differences between Eastern and Western thought, but Chess and Go can be used to highlight the differences between what's 'Complicated' and 'Complex'. Learning the difference is a great way to recognise and explore complex environments for appropriate practice and management.
This 'go playing' session aimed to introduce participants in a tacit and engaging way by to complexity theory; how an understanding of complexity can be used to look at business and manage change; and how the game of Go can be used as both a metaphor and a brain training exercise for managing success in complex environments.

Numerous prototypes, several major revisions, and a series of crucial revelations were survived before the concepts "action gardening" and "ecosystem gameplay" evolved from catch phrases into new interactive experiences the team was proud of. Join creative director Randy Smith through a tour of their well-documented experiments, mistakes, theories, and victories to get a glimpse into what this award-winning studio has learned about the problem of inventing new gameplay.

55. Super Mario Bros.
One day, the kingdom of the peaceful Mushroom Kingdom people was invaded by
the Koopa, a tribe of turtles famous for their black magic. The quiet, peace-loving
Mushroom People were turned into mere stones, bricks, and even field horsehair
plants, and the Mushroom Kingdom fell into ruin.
The only one who can undo the magic spell on the Mushroom People and return
them to their normal selves is the Princess Toadstool, the daughter of the Mushroom
King. Unfortunately, she is presently in the hands of the great Koopa turtle king.
Mario, the hero of the story (maybe) hears about the Mushroom People's plight and
sets out on a quest to free the Mushroom Princess from the evil Koopa and restore
the fallen kingdom of the Mushroom People.
You are Mario! It's up to you to save the Mushroom People from the black magic of
the Koopa!
